A super premium Banarasi saree woven in the rare Rangkaat technique — the body is pieced in vivid colour-cut bands of magenta, cream, purple, rust and mustard, each with its own delicate woven motif. A rich orange Katan silk border and pallu frame the saree, densely woven in the Kaduwa technique with a trailing floral vine picked out in Meenakari multicolour thread against tissue gold. A saree that commands attention through colour and craft alike. Blouse included.

Rangkaat is one of Varanasi's rarest and most demanding weave structures — the word means "colour cut", referring to the way distinct colour bands are separated and woven together on the loom without a single visible join. Pairing this with a Kaduwa Meenakari border, where each floral motif is individually woven and locked against the warp, makes this saree a genuine showcase of the weaver's full range of skill.
